Este libro contiene 'Cartas de las Heroínas', donde Ovidio creó un nuevo género literario, la elegía epistolar, e 'Ibis', una brillante exhibición de invectiva. Las 'Cartas de las heroínas' son poemas de amor en forma de cartas dirigidas por heroínas a sus amantes o esposos ausentes. En conjunto, son análisis de los sentimientos amorosos desde la perspectiva femenina, extendiendo esta mentalidad a personajes de la épica y la tragedia griegas. 'Ibis' es un poema en versos elegíacos, una imprecación contra un enemigo no identificado, mencionando destinos terribles sufridos por personajes míticos e históricos.

Publius Ovidius Naso, known in English as Ovid, was a Roman poet who lived during the reign of Augustus. He was a younger contemporary of Virgil and Horace, with whom he is often ranked as one of the three canonical poets of Latin literature. The Imperial scholar Quintilian considered him the last of the Latin love elegists. Although Ovid enjoyed enormous popularity during his lifetime, the emperor Augustus exiled him to Tomis, the capital of the newly organised province of Moesia, on the Black Sea, where he remained for the last nine or ten years of his life. Ovid himself attributed his banishment to a carmen et error, but his reluctance to disclose specifics has resulted in much speculation among scholars.
